Background and recording
Wiley Cash, author of the New York Times Bestseller, A Land More Kind Than Home, was commissioned to write the liner notes for arm" target="_blank">Arm in arm" target="_blank">Arm. Cash wrote, “arm" target="_blank">Arm In arm" target="_blank">Arm still showcases the sly, wink and nod lyrical turns reminiscent of the best bluegrass songwriters, but on many of the album’s songs, the lyrics – most of which were written by vocalist and banjo player Graham Sharp – are more earnest, characterized by a wistful clinging to a personal past that is not apparent on the Rangers’ previous records. This album is deeper, more personal, more resonant of life and struggle, pain and beauty.”

The album was Steep Canyon Rangers’ first experience recording without a producer. “Every day, everybody really got to focus on the music.
